A Very Stormy Day ....

Today is a really windy, rainy, yucky day ! I have a feeling we will be stuck indoors ! I'm glad I found some plastic play food last night at Value Village - Will & Charlotte have been playing with it all day :) They REALLY enjoy mimicking "grown up" behaviour ! I am going to keep looking for a doll stroller for them - it is their FAVOURITE thing to play with when we go to the early years centre. I'm sure I can find a cheap one !

Things have been going well lately - our day trip was a great success ! Me and my mom had SO much fun with Charlotte and Will.... and I'm pretty sure they had fun too:) Lisa & Chris I will have to get some of the photos from you so that I can post them for Jen & Dean to take a look at !

Cuties !

Ya ... We Got A Band !

These pics are old, but I thought that you would love to see them ! This is Charlotte and Will's "Band" - They ROCK !

Groovin' To The Drum ...

Tickling The Ivories ... or... Plastics ! Haha

Sorry I haven't posted in a few days .... this thing is a little harder to keep up than I thought ! haha

I have been looking online and there are TONS of fun activity ideas that I am excited to try out with Will & Charlotte ! I am going to get a list together and post it so that you will be able to see specifically what we are doing ( it's a little hard to write in great detail in those little books we correspond in ! ) I'll try to take photos of us doing the activities as well :) I am planning on taking a trip to the dollar store this weekend to purchase some supplies for our new activities ... dollar stores are so great ! Feel free to let me know if there is anything you have been wanting to get too and I can pick it up.

I am still planning on taking Charlotte & Will out for the morning on Friday with my mom, if that is still alright with you. My mom will be coming up Thursday night and picking me up from work, so we can load the car seats then, or Friday, whatever works best for you. I have decided on this place. ( See link ) http://www.bonapartyplace.com/home.htm It seemed like one of the best ! I will be sure to bring wipes / anti-bacterial gel !

I guess that's all for now - I will try to blog more often from now on !

The Toy Inspectors

Lately Charlotte & Will have become really interested in not only playing with their toys, but also inspecting them !! They especially like toys with wheels ! It's so fascinating to watch them learning how things work, and they make the cutest "concentration" faces ! ( See photos haha)

Fun With Glasses !

Charlotte Will Get Her Hands On These Any Chance She Gets !

He Looks So Grown Up With These On

Day Trip ?!?

I was noticing today how well both Charlotte and William are moving and interacting, and I am wondering if they are possibly ready for our first day trip !? ( Not the whole day of course) I talked to my mom, and since she will be coming to visit soon ( possibly this Friday, or the next), I thought it would be a great opportunity to take Will & Charlotte somewhere FUN that we normally aren't able to get to on foot or by bus. My mom said she is more than happy to transport us to our destination and to help out since keeping an eye on two toddlers is very difficult ! She actually sounded really excited. Soooo IF you are willing to entrust me (and my mom) with an outing, then I have been looking on the net and found some pretty great places that I think Charlotte and Will would LOVE! ( If not I definitely understand and will respect that too.) Anyway... I am going to mention this idea to you in person of course.... but I thought that I would use the blog to post the link to the places I have been considering... and you can take a look and see if any of them would be suitable. Most of the places are very similar, and would be easy to work around our existing schedule. They are also around 5 dollars each which I think is great ! :) Let me know what you think !!
